"In gathering and presenting Ike’s speeches we [the Dwight D. Eisenhower Memorial Commission] have sought to bring together a wide-ranging sample of the public addresses that Dwight D. Eisenhower gave before, during, and after his presidency. The speeches set out below are not a complete reproduction of every speech Eisenhower ever gave. This is a work in progress. When we come across a speech that appears to us significant and interesting, we add it."
